I could consistantly score AT LEAST 18.5k a gold match and I switch weapons whether they are bad or not, AND characters almost every time I play. Also, I don't even play adept I have her at level 6 lmao or have ever used the talon actually. Normally whenever I, now very rarely, hop on to play I'll get on some random character just to level them. Even when I first got my god awful valkyrie at level 1 in gold I scored about 21k I recall correctly. If you want to score, move around a lot, kill high value targets (if you can down them quick), etc. I have literally no idea what people are complaining about here.
My biggest gripes are the teleporting fiend and fiend grabs becoming ridiculous executions, crashing, and connection issues. They also need to release an update. I haven't actually played more than one match in the past couple weeks. I still log in from time to time for strike team and equipment, but that is it.
As an example last time I can remember playing a very low character in Gold was the Asari Sentinel level 3 rank X, I brought the indra with me and got 20k points give or take, and that is just on the top of my head. You can go in with no upgraded skills whatsoever, rather barely upgraded, a half decent weapon and do well. I use Indra as an AR btw lol, even though it is a sniper (run and gun). :eahigh_file:
